I don't have access to the old board, but in the final two weeks of its existence, I did a lot of archiving of the board on Archive.org. One of the things that I tried to get as much archived as I could, was the member list (which has the stats). 

Here's your archived profile from the old board (in case you want to add your old join date and old member number to your new profile): https://web.archive.org/web/20200427053033/https://boards.philadelphiaeagles.com/profile/106531-macgregor/

Ok, you're all set. 

Will this work? I just took a pic of my post count and profile before the old message board went away. Thanks!!

Yeah, that works. Your profile was archived on archive.org, too. https://web.archive.org/web/20200428201120/https://boards.philadelphiaeagles.com/profile/165800-columbus-eagle/

Did you archive banned profiles, and can we get those statistics back?

As long as it wasn't deleted from the board and still existed, it got archived... at least if it was on the first 100 or so pages, anyway. 

Doesn't look like you were banned, though: https://web.archive.org/web/20200428202750/https://boards.philadelphiaeagles.com/profile/238443-ifb-dog/

Or are you talking about another profile? If so, what was that screen name?

Were you running a program to auto-archive everything??

I was talking about a different profile, but didnt know if bans rolled over LOL.

No, I manually archived a lot of stuff in the final two weeks... in between setting this site up and a lot of people also archived their own profiles. Though, in the final day or two of the old EMB's existence, I found a method of telling Archive.org to archive a page, and any 'out links' on that page. So in those final few days, I archived a lot of stuff with that 'out links' box checked. So that helped a little because it would archive a couple of pages at a time as opposed to just doing the individual page that I set it to do. 

I tried to get some of the stuff that I thought was 'important' to EMB history, like the Super Bowl Gameday Thread, and a few other threads related to the Super Bowl (Parade, America's game, etc). I also did about 100 pages of the member list, just in case someone didn't know their stats after the old EMB was gone. I'd be able to reference back to it to adjust stats. It's really come in handy lol

As for bans, only bans that happened for really bad things, like threatening someone or stalking someone, that sort of stuff, carried over. 

I do not post that much..But I was a fan since 1980, and one of the first people to join the old board. I think I had close to several thousand posts on the old board. Can you adjust that? Thanks.

No problem, you're all set. You can also use that link to your old profile to get some of the info for your profile here, like your old join date and your old member number. If you want to include them in your profile here.

I do not see the member number? The join date is February 27, 2003. Rank Admiral.

Your old profile?

https://web.archive.org/web/20200426220010/https://boards.philadelphiaeagles.com/profile/17650-dawkinsownage03/

Your old member number is right before your name in that link, and you can find your old join date on the profile. Would you like for me to adjust your post and like counts to include your old EMB numbers?

Having a lot of pinned items was just always a bit of an annoyance to me on the old EMB, at least when the pinned items were no longer relevant. But I suppose that between now and the season, we could get more old EMBers finding us, so this could still be relevant for a while.

Meh, I agree with you. Unpin it if newbies join and post counts mean something to them I'm sure they'll let you know.

I would guess the people who would care about their post count numbers would be regulars who have posted here by now.

If possible please fix my profile too, so sad to try and sign in and everything for all those years completely gone....thanks
